Mu Yangyi chuckled. He knew what Jiang Ce wanted to do.
"By the way, boss, I've just been informed."
"It is said that Suhang, Qinmo and Huihai will be merged and collectively referred to as Jiangnan District, and you will be in charge."
"Boss, it's a fat piece of work."
Jiang Ce looked out of the window, "I'm not interested in that right now. Let's go."
"Well, where are you going?"
Jiang Ce thought for a while, "Now that I'm back. Go back home."
Half an hour later, the car stopped slowly.
Jiang Ce let Mu Yangyi left first, he walked into the Mingyuan community, to a slightly old laminated villa.
He knocked on the door a few times.
"Who is it?"
Su Qin, a middle-aged woman who was also Jiang Ce's mother-in-law, was stunned for a few seconds when she saw Jiang Ce. Then she looked happily, "Hey, Jiang Ce when did you come back?"
"Not long."
"Come in and sit down, please."
After his brother died, the family of his mother-in-law became the only relatives in the world.
Su Qin let Jiang Ce into the room, sat him down, and poured a glass of water, happy as she could be.
At this time, his father-in-law Ding Qishan came out of the inner room, "Who is coming?"
"It's Jiang Ce. Jiang Ce is back."
"Well?"
Ding Qishan glared at Jiang Ce impatiently, snorted coldly, and walked to the table and sat down.
"Jiang Ce, you still have the nerve to come back?"
Only one sentence made the atmosphere in the room tense and awkward.
"Old man, Jiang ce has just come back. How can you say that?"
"Go away. There's no part for you to talk about here. Go call Meng Yan down."
"Eh, okay."
Ding Qishan glared at Jiang Ce and said directly, "I've heard about your brother. Now, Jinmeng Technology has nothing to do with your Jiang family anymore, right?"
"Yes."
"You've been away as a soldier for five years, and now that you're back, have you ever taken up an official post?"
Jiang Ce shrugged, "It's not much of an official."
"You just didn't make it? It's not surprising, with your intelligence and skill, it will be strange that you can get sucess."
"So what kind of job are you going to get this time back?"
Jiang Ce shook his head, "There is no plan for now."
"Ha." Ding Qishan said angrily: "The company is gone, also you didn't make a good living when you were in the army, and now you're not even going to look for a job properly. You, what's the difference between you and trash?"
Just then, there came a series of sounds of high heels.
A woman came down the stairs.
A simple T-shirt clung to the body, showing off the perfect figure to the fullest, and underneath, she wore denim shorts with her long, fair legs generously displayed.
She had oval face, high nose, and long dark hair pouring down like a waterfall over her shoulders.
The face that launched a thousand ships. She was drop-dead gorgeous.
"Dad, mom, you called me?"
"Well, come and sit down. Jiang Ce is back."
Ding Mengyan was stunned for a few seconds, looking at the familiar and unfamiliar man in front of her with mixed emotions.
Although she and Jiang Ce were husband and wife, less than a month after their marriage, Jiang Ce left for the westland to serve as a soldier, and it was five years. She had been widowed for five years.
Now that Jiang Ce was back, she was at a loss as to how to face him.
Ding Qishan said: "Jiang Ce, as you can see, my daughter is top-notch in terms of her looks and body, and she's even better than the models on TV. I don't know how many men come to her door every day to ask for her hand in marriage, but it's because of you that she has to be widowed!"
"Dad, why do you say that?"
Ding Qishan continued: "Your father and I were friends from childhood to adulthood. He created the Jinmeng Technology and ran it well. We Ding family was also on the rise. At the beginning, I wanted a giant partnership, so I married my daughter to you."
"Now, your father is missing, your brother has committed suicide, and Jinmeng Technology has fallen into the hands of others. And you, after five years as a soldier, have achieved nothing. Now you, no money, no power, you think about it, are you worthy of my daughter? "
The house was as quiet as death.
Everyone breathed heavily, and no one could say a word.
A moment later, Ding Qishan said, "Don't talk about my reality. Life is cruel. Originally, I planned to let Mengyan divorce you as soon as you came back, but I decide to give you a chance because of my decades of friendship with your father. "
"Half a year, I'll give you half a year."
"Within half a year, I don't demand that you have to be wealthy and prestigious, but at least you can be a section chief or a director, I can let you be my son-in-law."
"Otherwise, pack up and get out of here."
"I can say it, I can do it."
Both Ding Mengyan and Su Qin had ugly faces. They didn't hate Jiang Ce so much. It was really embarrassing that Jiang Ce had just come back while Ding Qishan made it sound so bad.
Ding Qishan stood up, "I've just been informed that I have to go back to my department for a meeting. I gotta go."
Su Qin asked, "But the family banquet is starting later. Aren't you going?"
Ding Qishan shook his head, "No, I just received news that Suhang, Qinmo and Huihai districts would merge and a new leader would come. I have to hurry back to the city department meeting to discuss how to welcome the new leader. There can be no mistake in this matter, this can be related to the future of our Ding family, more related to my future in the city. "
"I'm sure other departments are keeping an eye on this, and I can't let anyone else take the easy way out."
"For the old man, just explain a couple of things for me. By the way, Jiang Ce, since you're back, follow Mengyan to the family banquet, so you can get a long view."
Ding Qishan put on his coat and left home in a hurry to discuss how to meet the new leader.
Inside the room, Su Qin comforted Jiang Ce: "Ce, don't be too sad. As long as you work hard, Qishan won't criticize you."
"I see, Ma."
Later, Jiang Ce got on Ding Mengyan's car and drove towards Qinyuan Hotel.
Today was the day of the Ding family's once-a-year family banquet, and all the dignitaries in the family would attend.
Along the way, Jiang Ce looked at the scenery out of the window, without a word.
Although they were husband and wife, they really didn't know each other at all.
Ding Mengyan mistakenly considered that Jiang Ce was still angry. She said faintly, "You don't have to be too upset, my dad's just that temperamental. He's right. If you keep hanging around like this, do you think it's right for you?
"You are not young, and you have achieved nothing so far. You can't let our family support you forever, can you? Are you even a man? "
Jiang Ce was still indifferent, the expression on his face had not changed.
Ding Mengyan got a little angry, sighed, "It's hopeless."
When it was about to arrive at the Qinyuan Hotel, Ding Mengyan reminded, "When you go in later, don't talk too much. If someone says something nasty to you, just smile and don't take it personally, okay?"
